Ink For Three: The Trilogy Boxed Set


Nicole Stewart - 2016
    Dane, a fellow artist and superstar in the tattoo world, introduces her to a rockstar friend and all around bad boy, Creed. What she wasn't banking on was just how "friendly" Dane and Creed can get with one another, and they're all too willing to bring her along for the ride. Although the sex has never been better, emotions are running high as Creed grapples with his need to experience life in a big way while Dane is moving in the opposite direction. Now through all the shattered feelings, jealousy and second guessing, it's up to Sky to keep the best thing that's ever happened to her intact."Ink For Three More"Chad's life has taken a hard left turn. Now he's drifting through one town after another, looking for work and the sense of belonging that he had to leave back home along with what remained of a more innocent time. He's broke and getting desperate. Something's got to give. A chance meeting with Dane Frost, an insanely hot, famous tattoo artist in a Las Vegas coffee shop ends with a job offer that Chad would be a fool to refuse. The pay may not be much, but for now he's content with a living wage, new friends and a roof over his head. Ginger is a strong woman with a dynamite personality. She loves her job as an artist with Frost Studios working for her idol, but she's got major demons and an abusive boyfriend who continues to make her life hell. She needs a lover who will treat her with respect and give her the physical and emotional fulfillment that she so desperately lacks in her current relationship. Her soul is running on fumes. When the new guy, Chad, starts working at Frost, she can't keep her eyes off of him. His youthful exuberance and gorgeous body betray a maturity beyond his years. However, she still has her current relationship to think about, and she's no cheater. Xander is a beautiful man, and he knows it, but he's also damaged goods and in serious denial about many things in his life. He's used his looks and bedroom talents to score favors from older, closeted gay men on the down low for as long as he can remember. But now, Xander's current sugar daddy has grown bored of their arrangement, so it's time to sink or swim. Thankfully he knows of a hot young guy who recently took a room above the tattoo parlor where he gets inked. Maybe his artist, Ginger, can introduce them? "Ink For Three: The Beginning (Prequel)"Dane Frost hasn't always been a superstar tattoo artist. Like most celebrities, his beginnings are considerably more humble. Before Dane can make big moves in the world, he's got some serious self-exploration to do. When a new hire, Abby, enters the scene as a guest artist at the seedy studio where Dane works, he is unexpectedly enamored of her. Normally identifying as gay, Dane sees a woman who is every bit as strong as she is beautiful. Her ability with a tattoo gun is nearly unmatched, but it's her throaty laugh and dangerous curves that have Dane under her spell. Dane is thrown by this new sexual confusion, but he knows as well as anyone that he can't choose the people who enter his life and what effect they'll have on his future. Thankfully, Dane doesn't have to go it alone. His extremely supportive and dashingly handsome boyfriend, Hector, is faithfully at Dane's side as they both embark on a passionate journey toward broadening their sexuality.

Omega Moon


T.C. Orton - 2016
    I was a literature student on the cusp of finishing my first year and despite everything that had been going on I had managed to keep my grades in this class quite high. Perhaps I was just naturally talented when it came to words or perhaps it was the person leading the class. Tall, tanned and handsome, Professor Damien Lock stood leering at the fresh faced young men and women before him. He had just turned thirty and had a face full of stubble that coated his strong jaw, his hair was short and thick, tamed by a handful of gel and pushed back so that his green eyes could stand out beneath the thick, black brows that I’d seen frown at me far too many times. I had spent several nights fantasizing about the older man, reaching into my briefs and tugging at my shaft as I thought of all the ways he could take me. Sometimes I’d catch a glimpse of his hairy chest poking out of the undone button of his collar, on those occasions I often found myself retreating to my dorm to release the tension building between my thighs. My sexuality had kicked in the same time my werewolf gene had. Almost overnight I found myself – a young man with a history of ex-girlfriends – craving other men and yearning for them to throw me up against a wall and have their wicked way with me. These emotions felt so natural that I didn’t waste my time questioning them. I didn’t want to deny what my heart, head and crotch were feeling. Maybe if I hadn’t been a werewolf then I would’ve struggled to ‘come out’ and accept myself but none of that other stuff really seemed to matter when I had to spend several nights a month controlling an insatiable bloodlust.
